The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for Singapore.

FANCL and Environ are two distinguished skincare lines known for nurturing overall skin health with care. The Japanese brand founded in 1980 and owned by Kirin Holdings Company, Limited since 2024 is loved for its thoughtful makeup removers and gentle exfoliants, while the other is widely known for its luxurious masks and advanced formulas. Both suit sensitive, dry, and normal or mature skin types best, offering mild care or advanced treatments without harsh irritations. They differ primarily in their specific offerings, as the former features the Mild Cleansing Oil for skin with dark spots and the Facial Washing Powder for acne-prone skin, whereas the latter relies on the Tri BioBotanical Revival Masque to address blemishes.
